Re: Game Plan the 3rd Preseason Game

Everyone's pretty much on the same page with (offensive) starters playing until halftime or significant scoring or yardage. The only way to find out if Chase is "the truth" is to have him play immediately after. But, if this were a open competition, Collins would be given a chance to start because he has already proven his worth. So... let Collins develop more chemistry with the WRs just in case he's needed down the road. Let him come in second. Colt, then Chase and then rotate them again in the final game.

Re: Game Plan the 3rd Preseason Game

1. How long do the starters play? The entire first half as a minimum. Into the third quarter if the first string struggles.

2. Who's the first QB off the bench? Chase Daniel. Need to know if this kid is for real.

3. Who's the second QB off the bench? Colt Brennan. He needs an opportunity to prove himself.

4. How would you manage the kicker battle? Alternate kickers. No one has stepped up and won this battle.

How would he get it by doing cleanup for the 3rd straight game? put him in 2nd and see once and for all if he can handle it or not. IMO the one who doesnt shine in this game needs to be released ASAP so the team can move on and that player will have a better shot of landing elsewhere since its early in the cuts. I dont see us putting a QB on the PS.

Re: Game Plan the 3rd Preseason Game

Bunch of people choosing to go with Chase off the bench. Wouldn't it be more fair to go with Colt in the 3rd, Chase in the 4th -- to evalute Colt with the 2nd team defense Chase had last week...

Hopefully it really shouldn't matter & they never see action. But either way, at this point Chase has looked better & confident and is my favorite. And he's not that short -- Drew Brees (6'), Doug Flutie (5'10"), and Joe Theismann (6') were all shorter. Chase is 6'1". Just get him some thick sneakers.

My understanding is that Chase is listed at 6' but actually is closer to 5'10".
